Book Synopsis Early Downhome Blues by : Jeff Todd Titon
Download or read book Early Downhome Blues written by Jeff Todd Titon and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed as a classic in music studies when it was first published in 1977, Early Downhome Blues is a detailed look at traditional country blues artists and their work. Combining musical analysis and cultural history approaches, Titon examines the origins of downhome blues in African American society. He also explores what happened to the art form when the blues were commercially recorded and became part of the larger American culture. From forty-seven musical transcriptions, Titon derives a grammar of early downhome blues melody. His book is enriched with the recollections of blues performers, audience members, and those working in the recording industry. In a new afterword, Titon reflects on the genesis of this book in the blues revival of the 1960s and the politics of tourism in the current revival under way.
Book Synopsis Downhome Gospel by : Jerrilyn McGregory
Download or read book Downhome Gospel written by Jerrilyn McGregory and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2010-10-05 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jerrilyn McGregory explores sacred music and spiritual activism in a little-known region of the South, the Wiregrass Country of Georgia, Alabama, and North Florida. She examines African American sacred music outside of Sunday church-related activities, showing that singing conventions and anniversary programs fortify spiritual as well as social needs. In this region African Americans maintain a social world of their own creation. Their cultural performances embrace some of the most pervasive forms of African American sacred music--spirituals, common meter, Sacred Harp, shape-note, traditional, and contemporary gospel. Moreover, the contexts in which they sing include present-day observations such as the Twentieth of May (Emancipation Day), Burial League Turnouts, and Fifth Sunday. Rather than tracing the evolution of African American sacred music, this ethnographic study focuses on contemporary cultural performances, almost all by women, which embrace all forms. These women promote a female-centered theology to ensure the survival of their communities and personal networks. They function in leadership roles that withstand the test of time. Their spiritual activism presents itself as a way of life. In Wiregrass Country, "You don't have to sing like an angel" is a frequently expressed sentiment. To these women, "good" music is God's music regardless of the manner delivered. Therefore, Downhome Gospel presents gospel music as being more than a transcendent sound. It is local spiritual activism that is writ large. Gospel means joy, hope, expectation, and the good news that makes the soul glad.

Book Synopsis The Downhome Sound by : Mandi Bates Bailey
Download or read book The Downhome Sound written by Mandi Bates Bailey and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2023-03-08 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American roots music, also known as Americana music, can be challenging to categorize, spanning the genres of jazz, bluegrass, country, blues, rock and roll, and an assortment of variations in between. In The Downhome Sound, Mandi Bates Bailey explores the messages, artists, community, and appeal of this seemingly disparate musical collective. To understand the art form’s intended meanings and typical audiences, she analyzes lyrics and interviews Americana artists, journalists, and festival organizers to uncover a desire for inclusion and diversity. Bailey also conducts an experiment to assess listener reception relative to more commercial forms of music. The result is an in-depth study of the political and cultural influence of Americana and its implications for social justice.

Book excerpt: Myra Oliver was twenty-two when she decided she wanted freedom from debt and consumerism. She designed a plan, made changes, and reinvented herself. By thirty-three, not only was she debt-free, she built a rental portfolio that provided her with passive income to quit her job and find financial independence. We live in a consumer-driven culture that prioritizes expensive things over quality of life. We buy houses we'll never own, cars we can't afford, and stuff we don't need. Debt is robbing us of a life worth living and forcing us to stay at jobs we don't like. We're trading our time for money-and not making our money work for us. In Down Home Money, Myra shows you that financial freedom is not about how much money you make, but what you do with it. She'll take you on an empowering journey to reclaim your life and change your future. Buckle up!

Book Synopsis Down Home Blues by : Phyllis R. Dixon

Book excerpt: HOME IS THE PLACE WHERE WHEN YOU HAVE TO GO THERE THEY HAVE TO LET YOU IN.Eden, Arkansas is a town you are from, not move to. But when divorce, foreclosure, domestic violence, and an all-expense paid trip (also called prison) disrupt the Washington siblings' perfectly planned lives, they end up back down home. Instead of serenity, sibling rivalries, divided loyalties and money squabbles resurface. Even the good news, that there may be natural gas on their father's land, causes conflict. When their father, C.W. Washington, one of the largest landowners in the county, announces his engagement, barely six months after his wife's death, his daughters fear Viagra is clouding his judgement (his sons say - go for it).Homemade preserves and family dinners are welcome by-products of the move down home. Unfortunately, family members aren't always singing in the same key. But just a few notes can switch a gloomy blues tune to the soundtrack for a good time. What song will the Washingtons play?Praise for Down Home Blues"Ms. Dixon has penned another riveting Southern family drama."Evelyn Palfrey, Essence Magazine best-selling author"Down Home Blues does a fantastic job of exploring how individuals and families interrelate..."D.
